    38 Products To Help Streamline Your Life A Little Bit

    You may feel like you're cheating at life when you have these genius products helping you get stuff done.

    1. toothbrush holder and dispenser going viral on TikTok for a reason — it cleans up counter space and also makes it easier for kids (and adults alike) to get toothpaste on the brush.

    This includes a toothpaste dispenser (that'll squeeze out every last ounce!), four cups and holders, and a place to store your toothbrushes.

    Promising review: "Game changer! I'm mad at myself for having not purchased this sooner. Keeps the counter clear, keeps the toothpaste mess to a minimum, and allows the toddler to independently prep his toothbrush (doubling down minimal mess). The pump dispenses the perfect amount of toothpaste. The cups on top act as a convenient and functional space to hold all of our flossers. Magnetic cups work as a great resource for the kids to all rinse the sink out nicely after use. Couldn't recommend this enough." —Mike Allegrini

    Get it from Amazon for $20.91+ (available in three colors).

    2. A "did you feed the dog?" tracker because I believe a dog's biggest goal in life is to trick their parents into getting fed dinner twice. With this sign though, you'll never have to send a text or call to your partner and can just go on living your life knowing that your dog is only pretending to be hungry.

    Promising review: "Awesome product! There are four of us who were working together to feed the dogs. It simplified everything because I no longer have to text to see if anyone had fed them every morning. Now I just see if it's green and if not I feed them and indicate it. We all love it so much!" —Toni Deegan

    Get it from Amazon for $9.95.

    3. A Bracelet Mate so you're never stuck home alone struggling to put on a bracelet by yourself.

    Promising review: "I can't believe I've waited this long to buy one of these. My eyesight is failing, including my depth perception so wearing bracelets has been difficult unless they are slip-on. This jewelry helper is easy to use. Now I can wear bracelets again." —Cat Mom

    Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in pink and white).

    4. A magnetic weekly meal-planning pad ready to help you plan out all your meals so you don't just open the fridge and stare at your one tomato and piece of bread trying to figure out how to make it into a delicious dinner. Not only is there space to write out the meals for every day of the week, but there's also a tearable grocery list you can take with you to the store to make sure you get everything you actually need to make those meals.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I got this because I wanted to have some structure in my week and not have to think about what to cook for dinner every night. It has helped tremendously, and I recommend it to anyone who struggles coming up with meals on the day of. At the ending of each week, I pick out everything I’m going to cook for the next weeks meals and write them down. I put anything I don’t already have on the shopping list. Now instead of not making something or having to make an extra trip to get ingredients, I just make one trip a week to the store and have everything I need. This definitely helped with the stress of cooking." —Chante

    Get it from Amazon for $9.95 (available in four colors).

    5. A luggage-mounted cup caddy so you have a place to hold your coffee (and water or snacks!) while you make your way through the never-ending terminal to find your gate. You'll never spill your coffee while trying to answer a text again!

    Promising review: "This cup holder is perfect! It helps me a lot! Last time I took a plane with a suitcase and a cup of coffee, I dropped and spilled my drink everywhere when it was my turn to check my passport and ticket. It was a nightmare! This time, I bought this cup holder to do me a favor! I don't have to worry about where my cup and phone are! I can free my hands to do other things. I love it so much! Hope you love it too." —Philip

    Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in nine colors and patterns).

    Promising review: "If you like to eat pancakes for breakfast a lot and want to avoid a lot of dishes, please get this! This is so worth it. I saw this on TikTok and had to get it. Just make sure you’re putting the amount of water that’s right for the amount you’re going to eat." —Buchii

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99

    7. A moisture meter designed to tell you exactly how much (or how little) water your plant is getting. If you've been struggling as a plant parent and can never figure out if you're watering your plants too much or too little, this gadget will make your life so much easier!

    Promising review: "This chopper is amazing!! I love cooking, but used to absolutely HATE chopping onions... until someone gave me this chopper! Now I simply have to quarter the onion, throw it in the chopper, pull the handle about 10-15 times, and they're ready to be used! No more teary eyes or spending a long time chopping onions. The cup is big enough to fit a whole onion... I think the capacity is 3 cups. There's tons of other uses to this as well... you can chop pretty much anything from herbs, veggies and fruits, to making salsa and guacamole." —Valjulia

    Get it from Amazon for $18.39 (available in three colors).

    9. A space-saving canister you can attach to the underside of a shelf to give yourself a super easy way to store cotton balls, flossers, and more.

    10. A no-tangle dual dog leash for anyone who spends more time untangling their dogs leashes than actually getting a walk in. The leash will keep both dogs happy, no matter their size difference. 

    Plus, you also get a poop bag dispenser and training clicker.

    Promising review: "This leash is FANTASTIC! I have a 70 lb. dog and a 26 lb. dog, and they can now walk together without problem. The stretchy part of the leash makes a huge difference in absorbing the shock from sudden moves. The handle part is quite comfortable. This leash has made walking the dogs so much easier. I was a little worried about how it would work with a big dog and a medium dog on the same leash, but it's been great." —CWilli00

    Get it from Amazon for $14.98 (available in two sizes and seven colors).

    11. A touchless stationary vacuum here to revolutionize the way you sweep because you'll never had to deal with a flimsy dustpan again. All you have to do is sweep the debris toward the vacuum, and it will instantly suck it up for you. Genius!

    GIF of reviewer sweeping dust into bagless vacuum

    An indicator light will turn on to let you know that the canister is full, and then you can remove the canister and dump the debris in the trash.

    Promising review: "I saw it on Tiktok and knew I had to have one. I hate cleaning but get annoyed with the clumps of dog hair and bits of things on my kitchen floor. I usually just vacuum my tile with the vacuum, which is a pain. This thing is so easy to just sweep things into, and it sucks them right up. Sure, it's more expensive than my actual vacuum, but I've only had it three days and have used it two times." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $114 (available in six colors).

    12. A microwave egg cooker making it so simple for you to have a delicious breakfast in the morning. Just crack an egg, add some veggies (and maybe a pat of butter), and you'll have a delicious omelet in a matter of minutes. No more skipping breakfast because you're running late or just feeling lazy.

    Promising review: "Eggs are not hard to cook, nor does it take much work. However, I didn’t do it often because if the clean-up and the addition of oil, etc. I now eat eggs nearly every day because it’s so quick and easy. I don’t have to add oil or butter to cook one, and I’ve just got one little thing to clean. Super simple and quick to clean (and dishwasher-safe). This has revolutionized my breakfast." —S. Hanlon

    Get it from Amazon for $8.49.

    13. A rolling desk bike that just may be one of the best multitasking products you own. You can knock out your work and exercises at the same time, which means you can do so many other things after you've closed your laptop. 

    Not only is the rolling desk bike compact, but it's also height adjustable to make it fit perfectly for you. The pedaling is also quiet, there's eight resistance levels, and it will track your mileage, rpm, and more.

    Promising review: "I saw this in TikTok, and I bought it. No regrets! I’ve used this almost daily since I got it. I’m moving way more than I did before. The table top part is a little loose, but that might be from me leaning on it too much. It wasn’t originally like that. I haven’t looked into tightening it. 10 out of 10 recommended for someone who looking to move more!!" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $479.99 (available in six styles).

    14. A set of scrubbing attachments you'll want to constantly take for a ~spin~, because they will get everything so darn clean without causing your arm to hurt from too much scrubbing after.

    Promising review: "We originally purchased this to scrub our tile floors and grout in the bathrooms. We have a dog who slobbers everywhere, and the only way to clean it is to use elbow grease. This thing is magical! We’ve used it on the walls (no paint removed), based boards, door jams and doors, windows, floors, and cabinets. Just dip it into warm soapy water and go to town! Recommending this to all our friends. Cuts cleaning time in half!" —A. Bos

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in six colors).

    15. A Take-n-Slide medication tracker reviewers swear by for staying on top of their medication. After you take your pill, you simply slide that day of the week over, and you'll know for sure that you've taken it for the day. No more questioning if you took your pill this morning or if you just remember taking it yesterday morning. 🧐

    Promising review: "Where has this been all my life? I love it. This is a lifesaver! I’ve been looking for something like this for years. I always forget 10 minutes later if I actually took my medicine or just put it down. I’ve tried so many different ways, making marks on the bottle, making stickers, and other pill containers. None ever work. And pill containers are so bulky when I only need one pill." —Niki

    Get a pack of five from Amazon for $19.99.

    16. A Thaw Claw to defrost meat up to seven times faster. All you have to do is suction it to your sink, fill the sink with water, and then put the frozen food under the claw. It will be defrosted in no time — and you'll never have to remember to take the meat out of the fridge in the morning again.

    Plus, this Black-owned and invented product fits in all sinks no matter the size or type.

    Promising review: "A package of frozen meat would have taken at least two days to thaw in the fridge. I used this for a 2-pound package a couple of days ago, and the meat was thawed within 90 minutes. One of the most practical kitchen gadgets I own." —Llda Schellhase

    Get it from Amazon for $18.95 (available in four colors).

    17. weekly, bleach-free shower spray you simply spray in your shower, leave overnight, and rise the next day. Yes, this cleaner is basically the set it and forget it of shower cleaners.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "This is a game changer. If you have a glass panel in you bathroom and stainless steal shower panel, then you need this. It does the work for you. Just leave it overnight and rinse it in the morning and all soap and hard water stains are gone! Amazing!" —SIMARA

    Get it from Amazon for $16.89.

    18. A beard bib for anyone who just may *scream* if they have to spend any more time cleaning tiny bits of hair off their bathroom counter. This "bib" will catch all those little suckers and ensure they end up in the garbage, keeping your bathroom spotless.

    19. Wad-Free, which is about to change your laundry life. Don't believe me? This seemingly boring square thing attaches to the corners of your sheets to help them dry faster, be less wrinkled, and stop them from encompassing everything in the drier into a tangled mess. It's a pretty ~neat~ tool, if I do say so myself.

    Plus, they're BPA-free, reusable, and created by a small business during the pandemic. 

    Promising review: "Wow!!! You wonder if things like this really work — well, I can absolutely confirm this does! I was impressed that the package came with two of the devices so there was one for the fitted sheet and the flat sheet. I tried it out and my sheets not only did NOT wad up, but they came out of the dryer feeling fresher, feeling more dry, and unwrinkled! I will be buying a set of these for each of my immediate family members and close friends! What a great gift!!!" —katy

    Get a set of two from Amazon for $18.99.

    20. An Instant Pot great for anyone who hates cooking (and even people who enjoy it) to make it so much easier to make delicious meals that you *might* stop making mac 'n' cheese three times a week.

    Promising review: "I am a guy not too fond of cooking and cleaning up. I like working out and eating clean. I bought the 6-quart last weekend, and I can say my life is now on a different trajectory because of this product. Cooking and cleaning up is now a breeze. It cooks amazing foods. (I suggest getting a recipe book.) I can cook in large batches for the whole week without too much fuss. The best part is cleaning up. Due to the deep bowl, it doesn't splatter everywhere when cooking. I use it to sauté a lot. It has replaced my electric stove and even my microwave. I just ordered the nonstick bowl for it as the food seems to stick to the stainless-steel bowl when searing or sautéing. It's an amazing product." —TK

    Get it from Amazon for $69.99+ (available in three sizes).

    21. And some Instant Pot magnetic cheat sheets that somehow make this genius device even easier to use because you'll know exactly how to cook so many different dishes without having to ask Alexa for help once.

    Promising review: "I am so happy that I decided to give this product a try! What an amazing idea. I placed the smaller magnet right on the Instant Pot and use it daily for a quick reference.

    22. A pair of horizontal glasses to help you read, watch TV, or play games while in the perfect, most comfortable position possible. Plus, they prevent neck and eye strain!

    These glasses are great for everyone, but especially for people who are bedridden.

    Promising review: "I didn't know what I was missing until I used this. My life is now complete. If you enjoy comfort and lazy binge-watching but don't care how ridiculous you look wearing these, then you have found Nirvana. My glasses fit in these just fine. Takes a minute to get used to, then it becomes your reason to live. Expect people to laugh at you, but forgive them for they know not what they are missing." —Michael Boyd

    Get them from Amazon for $11.58.

    23. A lid organizer because if your container drawer looks something like the picture on the left, you've def been so frustrated digging through the mishmash piles of lids trying to find the right lid that fits on the container your leftovers are already in. This gives you spots for every different size lid you own and transforms the drawer into an organized haven.

    Promising review: "This product does exactly what it's supposed to and does it well. In under 15 minutes, I took my nightmare lid drawer and turned it into a functional, convenient storage space. The dividers were simple to install and provided flexibility. Slowly but surely I am getting my tiny, chaotic kitchen under control, and this got me a huge leap closer." —S. Hawthorn

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99.

    24. A SockDock because I am convinced that socks plan their escape every time you put them in the wash. I mean, where do they go and how do I always end up with three lone socks after doing my laundry EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.??? This genius invention will save you from ever searching for your missing socks again. 

    SockDock is a small business founded by Kevin Bunn in March 2017 after he got so frustrated losing socks while doing laundry. 

    Promising review: "I love this product! This saves me so much time. Instead of having one for dirty socks and one for clean as they suggested, I hung one by our dirty clothes hamper, and one by the kids'. Once it is full, it goes in the wash. It takes me two seconds to fold the clean socks. No more hunting for a match every morning! My sock pile went from a huge basket, down to a gallon size zip lock bag of stragglers." —amanda courneya

    Get it from Amazon for $18 (available in five colors).

    25. An eyeliner stamp because nothing, and I mean nothing, can stop you from having an amazing day when you create the perfect cat-eye in less than a minute. What's that? Oh yeah, that's just Marvel on the phone to get you to be the next star now that you have an amazing superpower.

    Closeup of the black pen, showing the end that has the stamp on it

    Simply line up the stamp from the corner of your eye to the end of your eyebrow and stamp to create the perfect wing on both sides. The stamp is waterproof *and* smudge-proof, so you won't have to worry about reapplying throughout the day. The pen has two ends — one for stamping and the other has a fine tip for putting eyeliner on the rest of your eyelid.

    Promising review: "I 100% recommend this product. I love this!!! I can’t say enough good things. I am horrible at making my wings even!!! This has been a lifesaver and so versatile. It has cut my makeup time in half!!!" —lilly1991

    Get it from Amazon for $12.72 (available in three sizes).

    26. A clip-on strainer brilliantly designed to fit in any size pot or pan, so you can drain water, grease, or any other liquid without using a bulky (and hard to clean) colander.

    Promising review: "Love, love, love this pasta strainer!!! My husband and I hate cleaning out the strainer, so I ordered this to make life easier. OMG, does it make life easier!!! If this ever breaks, I’ll be ordering another! It’s very sturdy and easy to use. Absolutely love it!" —ShylohsRedShadow

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in five colors). 

    27. And a can colander for an easier way for you to strain your canned beans, veggies, or even tuna. You'll be so thankful for this when lunchtime rolls around and you realize you only have five minutes to whip something together before your meeting starts.

    Plus, it's dishwasher safe!

    Promising review: "Life-changing little strainer!! Okay, maybe not life changing, but this thing is awesome! I used to drain my canned tuna or chicken by just squishing the lid down and hoping I didn’t get squirted with stinky water. Now, I place this thing in the can and gently press down to drain the water with the utmost confidence that I will not 1) get injured on the can, 2) get splashed with stink water, or 3) lose any tuna out the side. Ahh, it’s the little things. :)" —jaime138

    Get it from Amazon for $8.50 (available in two styles).

    28. A ball launcher perfect for any pet parent whose fur babies loves to run. Not only will this get the tennis ball farther than just using your arm, but it also grabs the muddy, slobbery ball from the ground, meaning you never have to touch that gross thing again. Now that, my friends, is a win for both of you. 

    Promising review: "While my dog struggles with the concept of returning the ball to me, she absolutely loves this! We visit a huge dog park frequently, and this lets me throw a ball far enough that she really gets to run full throttle! I could never throw it far enough on my own to keep her interested more than one or two times before getting the launcher. Now, we can spend an hour at the park playing with it. I have one super tired dog when we go home. Tired dog = happy dog = happy dog mom. I also love that I don't have to pick up the slimy ball with my hands anymore, especially after she drops it in a puddle, because the launcher picks it right up. My dog gets so excited when she sees the launcher that she will bounce back and forth in front of me until I throw the ball. I only regret not buying one of these earlier!" —C. Fritzche

    Get it from Amazon for $5.28+ (available in three sizes and eight lengths).

    29. A set of lotus trolley bags designed to fit exactly in a shopping cart. These will allow you to bag your groceries as you go and then swiftly put them in your car afterward to take home.

    Promising review: "I am the envy of all who see me. Seriously. The only 'problem' with these bags is how many people will stop you to ask about them. I never forget to bring my reusable bags anymore because these are so useful! I use the scan as you shop app at my local store and bag as I go. When I’m finished shopping, I scan it at any register, pay, and go. Everything is packed the way I want it and can be easily carried into my home. It saves time while helping the environment — win/win. I plan to buy these for all of my friends for their birthdays. So much more useful than body wash or another scented candle!" —S. Connell

    Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in two color combinations). 

    30. A rapid egg cooker you can use to make hard-, medium-, or soft-boiled eggs in a matter of minutes. So goodbye to not knowing what you're going to eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner this week.

    Promising review: "I am not a fan of 'extra gadgets' in the kitchen. They clutter things up as far as I am concerned. But this truly is a game changer for my hard-boiled eggs. I have tried EVERY method in the book for hard boiling. This cooks them perfectly — no gray rings. They peel with no struggles at all! The only drawback is that you can only do six at a time, but it goes so quickly that I don't even mind that all. Easy to use, easy to clean. You won't be disappointed in this gadget — it does what it is meant to do perfectly! —Sarah Z

    Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in eight colors).

    Promising review: "Is this 100% necessary? No...however, it does make one thing a little easier for me in the morning. Instead of watching the pot and waiting for the water to boil to start the timer you can just put the NobelEgg in the pot with your eggs, start the heat and just wait for your eggs to be done. Cant wait to give some as gifts!" —Bailey Boo

    Get it from Amazon for $6.98.

    32. A reusable weighted bottle cleaner guaranteed to get your water bottles cleaner than a regular sponge and your human hands can. Simply put this in the bottle with some soapy water, and shake it up to get ALLL the gunk out. *Adding a little dance while you shake is optional.*

    This small biz was started when the founder, John, had trouble cleaning drink containers. This lil' gadget makes it so much easier to get your bottles clean. Each sponge lasts about four months.

    Promising review: "The Cleanzy Sponges are awesome!! They are so easy to use, and they really clean your water bottles! I actually don’t mind cleaning my water bottles now! I received the Cleanzy Sponges pretty quick, too! It’s definitely worth the money, and they are cute!" —Sharon Baker

    Get it from Cleanzy Sponges on Etsy for $9.99.

    33. A set of no-tie elastic shoelaces to transform all of your shoes into slip-ons because in the year 2022, nobody needs to be wasting any time tying (and then retying) their shoes. 

    reviewer image of sneakers with no tie shoelaces in them
    reviewer showing close up of how the elastic shoelaces are secured

    The shoelaces can be used on both adult and kid's shoes! Reviewers also say these are great for making it easy to remove shoes while going through airport security. 

    Promising review: "At first I was skeptical that these laces wouldn't hold my shoes on tightly enough, but I decided to give them a try in my Converse Chucks. They're fantastic! I like the way the "hidden" fasteners sit inside the shoes below the eyelets, but on top of the tongue, and I can't feel the fastener at all with my foot in the shoe. I've had them in for around eight months, and they're still just as elastic as ever. They haven't stretched at all and show no signs of wearing out. I loved them so much that I bought five more sets to put in all of my shoes! No more triple knotting my shoes so they don't become untied. I tie knots pretty slowly so these laces have honestly saved me tons of time. I couldn't be happier with them." —lucidity

    Get them from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 37 colors). 

    34. A portable blender so you can make a delicious smoothie in seconds anywhere. Yep, you read that right, *anywhere*. We're talking at work, home, on the street, at the gym. You name it, you can do it.

    This 14-ounce jar is dishwasher-safe and charges with a USB. Plus, it's quiet, so you don't have to worry about annoying the people around it when you use it.

    Promising review: "This portable blender is a total game changer for me. I love how easy it works, that it is portable, and how quickly it blends. I am going to be taking this with me daily. I'm so excited and happy with my purchase! I put in cucumber, banana, raspberries, almond milk, and protein powder, and it blended up smoothly. The only tip would be to make sure you put the powder in the center so it doesn't stick to the sides but that's with any blender. Happy customer!" —Tara

    35. The Pink Stuff, which is an all-purpose paste that works to clean basically everything in your house. This means you can go from scrubbing a pan to making your muddy rain boots look brand new in one swoop — no changing of cleaning products required.

    Promising review: "Oh my gosh — this stuff is a life changer! Used it to get my fiberglass shower totally clean. Nothing else would get it done and this stuff brought my shower back to near-new in one use. We’ve since cleaned a weird chalky film off our garage door, removed wall markings, and cleaned my storm door. We’ll never be without a jar (or three) of this stuff. Worth every penny." —Nancy F.

    36. A veggie chopper, slicer, and spiralizer because chopping takes an absurd amount of time. Like, seriously, when I read a recipe and it says it will take 20 minutes, they're not taking my slow chopping skills into account. This gadget will ~cut~ that chopping time in half.

    It comes with a small-dice blade, large-dice blade, spiral blade, and ribbon blade that are interchangeable and gives you the option to chop, slice, and julienne vegetables. Plus, you get a lid with a built-in chop and a storage container to hold the veggies.

    Promising review: "I’ve had this for a couple of months now, and it makes my life SOOOOO much easier. Anything I’ve thrown at it, it’s sliced with ease. Tomatoes, cucumber, peppers, onions, celery, carrots...EASY! I even use to chop the eggs when I make potato salad now since it’s so easy and makes perfect slices.

    "What used to take me three to four mins chopping up an onion and then a face full of ruined makeup, now takes less than one minute and no makeup ruined. The blades are SHARP, definitely be careful when removing them. But the lock on the tray makes it easy and so far I haven’t hurt myself with it. Typically, I’ll use it and then rinse out the top and put it in the dishwasher. It’s been through on the top rack well over 20 times now and still looks brand new. If something ever happens to this one, I’ll be back to get another one. It saves me so much time when cooking dinner!" —Macygrey09

    37. A false eyelash applicator reviewers swear is so easy to use, even for beginners. Applying false lashes should not be a difficult task, and yet it somehow is? Well, here's your solution to that.

    Promising review: "This is very easy to use and affordable. I was able to put on my lashes in no time. I can't believe I use to apply my lashes without this amazing tool. I place my lashes directly in the center and adjust the ends. My lashes go on in one minute less with this tool." —CITY Beauty

    38. An EZ Off Jar Opener you can place under a cabinet to give you a hand at opening any jars (or even water bottles). You'll never have to struggle and abandon your dinner plans again because you can't get your spaghetti sauce open...

    Not talking from experience...not at all... This little gadget can not only open jars but also other hard lids (like on plastic bottles). It's great for people with limited mobility. It's easy to use — just put what needs to be opened in the corner and twist.

    Promising review: "I’ve purchased electronic, battery operated, and manual openers for twist tops. I have arthritis, and this opener is a game changer for me. I’ve been able to open all size twist jars (even lids stuck shut with jam). I give it to friends and have told those I know with arthritis about it. I would buy again." —Ann H.
